Peace Education ProgramThe purpose of the Peace Education Program (PEP) is to help participants discover their own inner resources - innate tools for living such as inner strength, choice, and hope - and the possibility of personal peace. An innovative educational program, facilitated by volunteers, with a curriculum that consists of 10 videos, each focusing on a particular theme. The contents of the videos are based on excerpts from Prem Rawat's international talks. The workshops are non-religious and non-sectarian and the themes are: Peace, Appreciation, Inner Strength, Self-Awareness, Clarity, Understanding, Dignity, Choice, Hope and Contentment.

The Peace Education Program has a proven track record and is enjoyed at various facilities in more than 25 countries world-wide. In North Carolina, this successful program is currently being held for male and female inmates at the Buncombe County Detention Facility, and at the Black Mountain Women's Substance Abuse Treatment Center. Past programs have taken place at Western Carolina University for a class of senior criminal justice students, a Veteran's program, and the Southern Correctional facility for Women in Troy, NC.
